A tree is growing at a constant rate. It is recorded that at the 7th year since it was planted it was at a height of 25 feet. It was recorded again at the 10th year since it was planted and it was at a height of 31 feet. How much does the tree grow every year?

9514 1404 393

  2 feet per year

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 3 years between the 7th and 10th, the tree grew 6 feet from 25 ft to 31 ft. The rate of growth is ...

  (6 ft)/(3 yr) = (6/3) ft/yr = 2 ft/yr

well there are two answers for that.

1: you need 120 ones then that will equal up to 120.

2: you could also do one 100 and 2 tens.

those are the answers that i have thought of.
